c++ - How to improve logic to check whether 4 boolean values match some cases
问题描述
I have four bool
values:
bool bValue1;
bool bValue2;
bool bValue3;
bool bValue4;
The acceptable values are:
Scenario 1 | Scenario 2 | Scenario 3
bValue1: true | true | true
bValue2: true | true | false
bValue3: true | true | false
bValue4: true | false | false
So, for example, this scenario is not acceptable:
bValue1: false
bValue2: true
bValue3: true
bValue4: true
At the moment I have come up with this if
statement to detect bad scenarios:
if(((bValue4 && (!bValue3 || !bValue2 || !bValue1)) ||
((bValue3 && (!bValue2 || !bValue1)) ||
(bValue2 && !bValue1) ||
(!bValue1 && !bValue2 && !bValue3 && !bValue4))
{
// There is some error
}
Can that statement logic be improved/simplified?
解决方案
I would aim for readability: you have just 3 scenario, deal with them with 3 separate ifs:
bool valid = false;
if (bValue1 && bValue2 && bValue3 && bValue4)
valid = true; //scenario 1
else if (bValue1 && bValue2 && bValue3 && !bValue4)
valid = true; //scenario 2
else if (bValue1 && !bValue2 && !bValue3 && !bValue4)
valid = true; //scenario 3
Easy to read and debug, IMHO. Also, you can assign a variable whichScenario
while proceeding with the if
.
With just 3 scenarios, I would not go with something such "if the first 3 values are true I can avoid check the forth value": it's going to make your code harder to read and maintain.
Not an elegant solution maybe surely, but in this case is ok: easy and readable.
If your logic gets more complicated, throw away that code and consider using something more to store different available scenarios (as Zladeck is suggesting).
I really love the first suggestion given in this answer: easy to read, not error prone, maintainable
(Almost) off topic:
I don't write lot of answers here at StackOverflow. It's really funny that the above accepted answer is by far the most appreciated answer in my history (never had more than 5-10 upvotes before I think) while actually is not what I usually think is the "right" way to do it.
But simplicity is often "the right way to do it", many people seems to think this and I should think it more than I do :)
